:weep: I'm suffering really badly from acid reflux (or GERD as it as known) my doctor has given me stronger tablets to help combat it but it feels like I can't relax over it ever. Every day i'm waking up and wondering if I am going to feel well or ill because of it. I drink herbal tea to try and help digestion and try and be careful with my diet. I just don't know what to do anymore and I am fed up. Is anyone else in a similar position to me?

Yes, I am in exactly the same position! I either have acid reflux or am in fear and dread of having it. Nothing really helps and its making my anxiety off the scale.

Check out the FODMAP (http://www.ibsdiets.org/fodmap-diet/fodmap-food-list/) diet. My wife and I have reflux and follow this in addition to taking a PPI. We've improved dramatically.
